If someone can help me with this, i would greatly appreciate it. I would like to give this truck to my oldest son when he is old enough, and would like it to be finnished when i do. I am a mechanic by trade, I also do body work, audio/video, and fiberglass. I am fully capable of performing the above modifications myself if I had the parts and a welder. For some reason, its not letting me post pictures, so until i can figure this out, the truck can be seen at http://www.myspace.com/hydraulicisuzu or you can email me at kspotsylvania@aol.com or spyderskustoms@aol.com
As far as a sponsorship goes, if some one can supply me with the needed parts and a welder, i can do all of the modifications myself (except paint). I have taken the truck to car shows as-is and won a couple 'under construction' awards. Any sponsers will obviously get their names put on the truck, i'll go to any shows requested, set up their booth excetera. Just let me know what to do.
Thank you for reading this,
Greg k.
(note: will trade for a 1968-1972 prostreet nova)
